This might be my favorite first post I've ever seen on any of the car forums I belong to.

Looks like a clean sc, at first glance i thought it was an s14 and you were in the wrong forums. It makes a lot more sense if it was broke down if it was a nissan lol. Whats the issue with your whip?

I make a post like yours everyday, and I've been on this forum for seven years.

Is this a 300 or 400? I'm a little lost on the "engine fan fluid". If you see "fluid" leaking from the large engine fan, it might actually be the waterpump located behind the fan (300).

sounds like the 400 with the hydro fan. its a complicated system that can spring a leak.
just have to find and replace. clean first, then spot the leak.

This is false. It is not a complicated system. (i'm just ribbing ya)

It can, and will leak though!

That being said. We would be more inclined to help if we had more information than:

"New to the forum can you guys help me fix this piece of ****"

and

"Thanks bros but yea I have a major issue with the Ingine fan fluid its a bad leak and don't know from where I changed a high pressure hose that cost $150 but wasn't it Andy ideas where the leak could be?"

There is a pump, 2 hoses (pressure and return), the fan motor itself, the reservoir, and the tube that runs from the reservoir to the fan pump. Pretty cut and dry for hunting down a leak.

Pro Tip: The fan uses ATF. Your transmission also uses ATF. Make sure it's not a trans cooler line leaking. The fluids look the same.
